SWEET COUNTRY (MA15+)

Australian western set on the Northern Territory frontier in
the 1920s, where justice itself is put on trial when an aged Aboriginal
farmhand shoots a white man in self defense and goes on the run as posse gathers
to hunt him down.

Director: Warwick Thornton

Writers: Steven McGregor, David Tranter

Stars: Bryan Brown, Matt Day, Tremayne Doolan The picture's director Warwick Thornton has said of this movie's filming locations and settings: "That landscape around Alice Springs is sacred. The MacDonnell Ranges are always in my mind from growing up there with my family. So, Sweet Country (2017) is a film about the land and our family, and what happened when the missionaries and pastoralists arrived." source: IMDb
